Looks good rage. :thumbsup:

I think you forgot to change the column header in some of the results. It says GTX580 when this is the GTX570 review. :o

Thanks. :)

Nope, there are GTX 580 compare results for each test along with a percentage column indicating how close the reference and EVGA 570 got...

I'll triple check though...

Would have liked to see the 480 in there as well, but nice review ;)

Does this support full HDMI audio lossless bit streaming like the 460 ?

great review, looks like a very nice card.

excellent idea to put in a column for % of 580 performance. :thumbsup:

I'd think a 4890 would be a tight fit in there, and I believe 4890's are shorter than the 10.5" cards.

You were a co-reviewer back in '04 Jeff... I sure appreciated your help on that (FX 5600 & 5900 XT review).

Sometimes it's play, sometimes it's work. I enjoy both though.

Yeah I remember way back then, I went to a computer show and grabbed the FX5200 just after they came out to replace my ever faithful Geforce4 4200TI. What a dud that card was with a anemic 64-bit memory bus. But I had one of the first FX5000 cards. I think I sold it 3 months later but just used the 4200 because the performance was far superior.

NICE JOB

THANKS BUDDEH

:p



The index system I created was quite difficult to do, but I thought it might remove some of the "forum-ness" of the review... you can actually navigate with the Previous and Next links, but I noticed that they open up new windows... I wish it would just go to the link instead of opening a new window, meh....

... And I put some extra work into making the charts look kinda nice, better than nondescript black lines/black text.

I also spent time in Photoshop with the images, as opposed to Paint.NET which I usually use.

There was a guy on rage3d who kinda called out the format of these reviews, but he has since retracted his statements as he was a little harsh & not really understanding the circumstances....

Thanks Mike. :) It puts a smile on my face knowing that the site owner's getting excited about what I'm writing. But... Mike... Mike... MIKE. Keep it in your pants. Sheesh. :p

That's what i was going for and I'm glad that I may have succeeded. :)


Anyone have any specific questions about the hardware, the review process, problems I ran into, people I had to threaten with bodily injury?
